The room was completely dark as bucky entered it, the moonlighting casted onto a a whimpering figure under a blanket.
"y/n?"

You didn't say anything as the sound of Thunder shook you to your core, making you let out a shriek.

Bucky laid down next to you and peeled the blanket off of your body. Your sweat glistened off your forehead and you let a sigh of relief when your eyes met Bucky's. He ran a hand across your cheek and looked at you with worry.

"Doll, you're burning up. Why are you under a blanket?"

A sigh left your lips as you shook your head with embarrassment
"it's stupid really."

Bucky gave you a confused look, but realized what it was as you yelled out.
"Is it the storm?"
You nodded as your buried your face into your hands, his eyes softened.

"Love, there's nothing to be afraid of."
He whispered into your ear and wrapped his arms around you.

"Since I was little i've just always been terrified of them. I know they can't hurt me, but every time I hear it's like my body hurts and I freeze"

You shrugged and shifted so your head was laying on Buckys lap. Bucky glances at you with a smile and grabs your hand.

You closed her eyes as he begins to tell stories about Steve and him when they were younger, soon enough the storm was a long lost thought as laughs fill the room.
